i'liopnixvillr with norristown by a line atonjr the river hclmylk ill as thif is naturn'sg highway it is astounding that it imw taken liumrii genius so long to find it cross-roads nonld 1h established as oe<leis for this funnel route to phila delphia i see that efforts arc iiuik inn to secure the the right of way over lohn l hay's land at valley form it m john l ubv who owns the old tlotel at valley forge on the chester county side at valley creek where the force was located and where washington's headquarters and encampment of hip army were located if mr hny ami other property owners are liberal to wards this enterprise he opposition of the heading railway company along whose line the new road would run parallel would amount to nothing pre judice of property owners and excessive demands for damages being overcome the opposition of the heading kail way company would count for naught would indeed only aid the new adven turers it did when the rendin<r sought to obstruct hinder and delay the schuyl kill valley railroad company through norristown up the river to beading the reading hied bill in equity after bill but all to no purpose as the result shows but now although we have rival steam roads from here to phi la delphia freights are higher apd pas senger nites no lower than before the electric car companies need some legal ability in the legislature a session or s to secure their rights liberties anil franchises monoplies of public com merce carriers must be broken op we ought to ride to phoenixville and col legeville for five cents to either place philadelphia

chief of the army and navy of the commonwealth any law enacted by the legislature to contravene and set aside the fundamental charts of tire state would be itlmnflrtitntionai void and the governor elected by tho people would disregard it but kentucky is made up of very peculiar people bat too often might makes tight it looks as if the old hlnc urass state re q hired reconstruction and regeneration lint so lar as having two legislatures and two governors may affect people generally they will probably bless the day that disrupted the institutions so that no valid legislation of the kirn we get now-a-davs atllict them it was n special law there that hied the bad blood of kentucky and inspired the assassin to take the life of vvillinn < loebel they who rise by the nwon of factional and special enactments wil fall by the same weapon this sad con troversy anil imbroglio in kentucky ih only a prelude hi what must happen he-re unless the people can e made tree as formerly to vote for whom they please nomination or no nomination what ever rights are not given to con gress are reserved to the people but the legislature is the supreme power in the state and hence the legislature should always be composed of competent am conscientious men may this war in kentucky result in good in this regard many flourishing villages make the mistake of increasing their expenses an taxes by applying for and obtaining charters us boroughs and boroughs by applying for moond or third-class city charters in chester county a borough called hopewell has petitioned court t have her charter revoked and set aside so that the citizens can take their place in the township as of yore many charters have b°.en granted to boroughs that should not have been and for cities also little boroughs make little men they have not had a burgess in hopewell for over two years and they are better without one or any other borough olh farther than that for live cents hut i «*. the niultiplii

valley creek by washington's headquarters then up to pawling's bridge and into phoenixville by the corner stoics this would make a pro lific road and especially po in sr.mmer for all tourists who would want a good view of these historic centres the grade aii'i road beds are perfect und ready made views along the route are grand and the sacred soil inspiring while plain the poor man growls and
